7. Learn the Core<br />
Qualities of a<br />
<strong>Network</strong><br />
Market<strong>in</strong>g Leader<br />
N<strong>in</strong>e Core Qualities<br />
There are n<strong>in</strong>e key qualities that all top network market<strong>in</strong>g<br />
leaders possesses. Some, or even many of these, you<br />
have already put <strong>in</strong>to action. To be a leader — and set<br />
an example that others can duplicate — you must learn the<br />
rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g ones.<br />
To practice all n<strong>in</strong>e core qualities means you’ve made and<br />
honored a commitment to “go core.” To develop your bus<strong>in</strong>ess,<br />
you must identify and work with the people <strong>in</strong> your organization<br />
who are will<strong>in</strong>g to make this same commitment. Let’s take<br />
a look at these core qualities:<br />
• Use All of the Products<br />
To “go core” means that if your company has a product —<br />
you would never buy a compet<strong>in</strong>g product for any reason. A<br />
“Brand X” product purchase takes money out of your bus<strong>in</strong>ess<br />
and puts it <strong>in</strong> someone else’s. This k<strong>in</strong>d of practice will put you<br />
out of bus<strong>in</strong>ess quickly. A core person never buys “Brand X,”<br />
regardless of sales, convenience or any other reason. It’s simply<br />
bad bus<strong>in</strong>ess. You must use all of your company’s products<br />
that apply to you and be able to talk knowledgeably and enthusiastically<br />
about them — to effectively build your bus<strong>in</strong>ess.<br />
• Develop A Consumer Group<br />
Your bus<strong>in</strong>ess is driven by the volume produced by sales to<br />
the end consumer. A great deal of those sales will be to distributors<br />
who “buy from their own store” and use the products<br />
themselves. But there are many other people who will benefit<br />
from your products or services — but are not <strong>in</strong>terested <strong>in</strong><br />
build<strong>in</strong>g a bus<strong>in</strong>ess at this time. These people will become your<br />
consumer group.<br />
It’s critical that you develop this consumer group. This is<br />
good bus<strong>in</strong>ess, because you: service the people who aren’t distributors,<br />
but need your product or service; earn retail <strong>in</strong>come;<br />
develop consistent <strong>in</strong>come you can count on from regular customers;<br />
and, build personal group volume, which can keep you<br />
qualified to earn many other lucrative bonuses and <strong>in</strong>centives.<br />
It’s a good goal when you’re just start<strong>in</strong>g out to develop a base<br />
of at least ten retail customers.<br />
NOTE: Please don’t go out try<strong>in</strong>g to sell products retail first<br />
— then attempt to sneak the bus<strong>in</strong>ess <strong>in</strong> the back door. Present<br />
the whole program — bus<strong>in</strong>ess and products — and let the<br />
prospect decide. Get your retail customers, from the people<br />
who choose not to participate <strong>in</strong> the bus<strong>in</strong>ess.<br />
